In It's a Setup, Timothy Black and Sky Keyes show that socially and economically marginalized fathers embrace involved fatherhood. Tracking these life histories, Black and Keyes move us through the lived experiences of job precarity, welfare cuts, punitive child support courts, public housing neglect, and the criminalization of poverty to demonstrate that without transformative systemic change, individual determination is not enough: for fathers on the social and economic margins, it's a setup.
